The course to increase the area of Turkish forests and the expansion of green zones in the cities of the country remains unchanged. This was said by President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, referring on Thursday in a video conference mode to the participants of the opening ceremony of nine parking complexes “Gardens of the Nation” in the regions of Turkey.
The opening ceremony of the zones in the provinces of Adyyaman, Giresun, Duzhe, Bursa, Bole, Afjonkarahisar, Adan, Sivas and Erzinjan were confined to the Environment of Turkey.
According to the Turkish leader, the authorities plan to bring the number of “gardens of the nation” to 500, which will ultimately “change the appearance” of settlements in each of the 81 province of the country.
“The number of park complexes” Gardens of the Nation “in Turkey will reach 500, of which 189 have already been transferred to the use of citizens of the country, the construction of 137 continues,” said Erdogan.
The head of state noted that the destructive February earthquakes made it possible to better realize the significance of the presence of “public zones” in the cities of the country.
“Environment: Heaven, Sea and Earth is a legacy. We are obliged to relate carefully to ecology, to actively instill in society a love of nature,” the president emphasized.
